The Truth Comes Out Tab

by Corb Lund Band


This was my first tabbing of a song, & I think I did ok :) It sounds good to me!
Hope it helps, enjoy :)

[] the truth comes out as the fire burns low 
[] it comes to light as only embers glow 
[] the whiskey talks, the west wind moans in the night[] []

[] the deadfall's gathered and the branches are cut 
[] kindling crackles and the smoke curls up 
[] the small sticks catch then the bigger stuff will burn[] []

[] chinook dies down as the dark descends 
[] pine has burned, the ash has cleansed 
[] the message smolders, is lost, but finally sent[] []

[] connie says she's never seen the cougars so bold 
[] they're comin in the yard and they're stealin young colts 
[] they drag em in the brush with the claws sunk in their nose[] []

[] the weather's been funny thirty years or so 
[] the winters got warm, not as much snow 
[] hear the big cats comin cuz there's nowhere left to go[] []

[] you gotta look out for bear when you’re fishing on lee’s creek 
[] they’ll come round the bend and they’ll make your knees weak 
[] there’s grizzlies where there was no grizzly bears before[] []

[] half heard voices from the ghosts, from the graves 
[] the grandfathers tell us at the mouths of the caves 
[] only old chiefs older than jesus can save us now, if we're lucky[] []

[] white man light a big fire, stay cold 
[] the red man's warmer, but the old man's old 
[] the antelope seeks the buffalo in the night[] []

[C] the antelope mourns the buffalo in the night[G] [D]
